Now would this be a physical or accustic knocking? Is the engine idling kinda bumpy and shaking the car like its misfiring? I'd check some of the basics first like spark plugs and seeing if they are torqued, and wether the gap is correct.

Well check the plugs next time you can and if those are doing ok, then take it down to a trusted shop and have them take a look inside.
